Claude Code v2.1.228 ·

Model-backed pre-flight check on shell commands is gone

Shell commands start faster because the safe prefix is now worked out locally.

What

Claude Code no longer sends a candidate shell command to a model to work out its safe prefix before running it. That means one fewer round-trip and one fewer thing that can stall or fail before a command starts. The prefix is now derived locally from the already-parsed command.

Details
  • The removed results command_injection_detected and dangerous_shell_prefix no longer exist.
  • The 10-second message "Pre-flight check is taking longer than expected" can no longer appear.
Evidence

dangerous_shell_prefix

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
